Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 450: Ways to Kill Demigods

The moment the talisman left her fingers, Angel felt a dangerous aura that made her tremble from in front of her. It came from the "disaster talisman" made with her blood.

But the next moment, this breath disappeared completely, and the surrounding dark cave seemed to be dyed with a peaceful color, and a faint light emerged.

Feeling the cold touch from the "Hidden Holy Emblem" on his right wrist, Angel knew that he had been pulled into a nightmare hidden on Pala Island by "Pierce Turner" and maintained by many residents.

In front of her, the man in the trench coat who had appeared in Leiden's dream of digging for gold appeared again. His face was still blurry, but his tone was completely different from last night, taking on a metallic texture.

"After you leave the dreamland, you will take off all the magical items on your body, enter my body, and merge with me. Then, take my dreamland with you, leave Pala Island, and return to..."

He spoke in a calm tone, as if giving orders to his subordinates.

"Will I?"

A sneer appeared on Angel's lips, interrupting "Pierce".

"...Wait, you can still stay awake?"

The latter asked in surprise with a harsh sound like metal scratching, and subconsciously moved his steps away from the sneering Angel.

"Perhaps it's because my 'Secret Holy Emblem' came from an angel, not a saint. In addition, the third spell I threw just now was not 'Sleep'."

Angel raised his right hand and once again showed the out-of-control "Night Watcher" the Holy Emblem that could keep her awake in her dreams instead of rejecting all dream abilities.

This was also the fundamental reason why she doubted the identity of the other party.

In Backlund, she had received dreams and psychic inquiries from the Nighthawks several times. Each time, this secret holy emblem could keep her awake in the dream and cope with it perfectly. But if the holy emblem had no effect at all, Resisting dreaming for no reason is like holding a big sign that says "I have a problem", which does nothing to hide your identity.

In this case, as a senior deacon of Sequence 5, Pierce Turner, who had even taken the Sequence 4 "Night Watch" potion and was almost promoted to a demi-god, how could he be blocked by the Secret Holy Emblem?

After thinking about it, there is only one possibility. It is that the other party is pretending that "it cannot break through the secret holy symbol", but it is actually paving the way for a conspiracy. For example, at this time, or for example, I really believe in "the kind Pierce" and try to get close to him. His body, the end of his suffering.

If this is indeed the case, then the purpose of the other party's invitation to kill him is very suspicious. Can a demigod, even if he is completely defenseless, really be easily killed by a mid-level Beyonder?

Could it be that... this senior deacon who claims to be fighting against the evil Pierce is actually... the evil him?

And the one who blocked the dialogue at critical moments several times was actually the one Pierce who wanted to end it all?

Following her thoughts, the holy emblem on her wrist, dotted with bright stars and crimson moon, flashed with the light of the night, and the hazy colors around it faded away, returning to a dark mine.

Right below her, the "Pierce" piece of meat that had also returned to the real body let out a sharp scream that was the same as in the dream. It moved its bulky body, ignoring the cracks in the rotten skin, and the yellow and white feathers. The clusters spread out, desperately avoiding the trajectory of the "disaster" spell in the air.

He also felt the dangerous aura emanating from this spell, which was enough to cause his body to die directly even though it was polluted, but still had the status of a demigod!

At this moment, a slightly thin arm suddenly emerged from the mass of rotten flesh that was torn apart by violent movements. It was filled with yellow-green juice and a putrid smell, and slowly but firmly faced the black piece. iron piece, holding it in his hand.

"Do not--"

The roar with the sound of metal friction stopped abruptly. From the arm that came into contact with the "Disaster" charm to the torn pieces of flesh, the entire "Pierce" festered and collapsed in almost no particular order.

It was not the outward appearance of decay caused by loss of control and reorganization, or half a year of internal fighting, but truly, from the inside out, every cell showed the quality of "destruction".

"puff--"

With a muffled sound, the huge piece of flesh split apart, and like a pool of pus that had been pierced through the skin, it rushed to the low-lying part of the pit and quickly solidified into dark red filth.

Even the stench that was still wafting before has completely disappeared, as if it had never existed.

Seeing this piece of meat with demigod characteristics die under the "disaster", Angel breathed a sigh of relief and put down the "good luck" revolver in his hand.

When she saw that "Pierce" could actually move and almost avoid the falling spell, she was ready to attack first and then take the opportunity to escape from the mine. It would be impossible for her to return here without calling on a whole team of fully prepared official Beyonders.

Unexpectedly, in the end, the remaining trace of conscience in Pierce's body actually urged his arm to actively catch the "Disaster" spell, completing the fatal blow.

That's right, this is just the last trace of the "original Pierce". After losing control during promotion half a year ago, in the body here, in the nightmare of Para Island, I am afraid that all that is left is the crazy senior deacon. He weaves dreams to expand the scope of his actions, deceives the punisher into concealing the truth about the mine, and even pretends to be a conscientious self, intending to lure Angel here and use her body to leave the island.

If his disguise hadn't been too deliberate, in order to make Angel relax her vigilance, and lied that he couldn't break through the "Secret Holy Emblem" to pull her into a dream, Angel might really believe this.

Of course, the result may not make much difference. The "Secret Holy Emblem" provided by Ms. Arianna can still prevent Pierce from controlling her dreams, and the slow-moving piece of meat cannot escape the shackles of the mine. Next, he will face generation A thorough cleanup by the Punishers.

He waited quietly in the mine above, until the dark lights gradually condensed into a dark and unclear object. Angel then controlled the thread, pulled it out of the filth, hung it on his fingertips in the air, and observed it carefully. .

It was a Holy Emblem of Night stained with yellow oil on the outside.

It combined with the contaminated "Night Watcher" characteristics to form a certain sealed object. Just looking at it from a distance made her feel like she was almost falling into darkness and falling into a dream, but there was also a little bit of it mixed in. The whispers that made her almost crazy, even made her feel itchy all over her body, especially her right hand with extraordinary characteristics hanging through the silk thread.

On the back of that hand, hairs began to appear. One of them was particularly long, and under Angel's dark vision, it turned into a curled feather!

Looking at this strange scene, she felt that the pores all over her body were itching, as if feathers were about to come out of them.

Not daring to delay any longer, she immediately took out the iron bullet box she carried with her, put the contaminated holy symbol into it, and sealed it with a simple spiritual wall.

This will seal out contamination a bit, but not for too long.

Carrying this kind of time bomb with no clear negative effects on you and bringing it back to the town is simply disregarding the lives of other people.

After thinking for a moment, Angel quickly built a spiritual wall with Holy Night powder, lit sacrificial candles, set up a simple altar on the spot, and recited the name of the Fool.

“…I pray that you will open the gates of your kingdom.”

Breaking open a few "Phantom Phosphorus Eruptions" made of star crystals, she used the spiritually rich material as a sacrifice. She quickly received a reply from Mr. Fool, who offered a bullet containing the contaminated "Night Watch" seal. box.

"Mr. Fool, this tainted characteristic comes from a certain Nighthawk saint who failed to advance and fell into madness. Please use your power to temporarily save it until I have the opportunity to return it to the Church of the Night. As compensation, I will Collect more diaries of Emperor Russell for you, and offer possible rewards from the Church of the Night."

This should be enough. I specifically mentioned the Church of the Night, and mentioned that this is an extraordinary characteristic left by the Nighthawks. Mr. Fool should agree to keep it for me, right?

After lowering her head and praying for a long time, Angel felt a breeze blowing inside the wall of spirituality. She looked up and saw that the bullet box on the ground had disappeared.

She happily praised the Fool in her heart and removed the spiritual wall. She looked at the bunch of down on the back of her right hand that had stopped growing but was still quite conspicuous. The smile on her face gradually disappeared again. She sighed and packed it away. The candle used the strong wind to control the Holy Night powder, returned to the main channel of the mine, and quickly left here.

As for the filth caused by the demigod bodies at the bottom of the cave, she didn't dare to touch it. Even retrieving the sealed object from the air caused certain changes in her body. If she jumped directly into the cave, she might end up like the former senior deacon Pierce. Turner will end up, and this matter should be left to the punishers.

……

Far away, Bayam rarely slept in, but Klein was awakened from his dream by the illusory sound of prayer. He quickly came to the bathroom, entered the Kingdom of Fool, and received the bullet offered by Angel during the "Sacrifice" ceremony. box.

Listening to the prayer content in his ears, he opened the bullet box with some disbelief, poured out the Holy Emblem of Night, held it on his fingertips and observed carefully. The pollution that was almost fatal to others seemed unusually quiet above the gray mist. , even the oil stains on the surface have become dim.

Is this formed by the extraordinary characteristics of the saint, that is, the demigod?

What happened on Pala Island? Why did I receive a letter from Angel just the day before yesterday, saying that everything was normal on Pala Island, and today she presented a demigod-level sealed artifact?

She...can already kill demigods?

Resisting the urge to click on the crimson star representing the "Queen" and ask it directly, Klein looked at the "Poseidon Scepter" inlaid with blue sapphires in his hand with some melancholy and from the fallen "Poseidon" Kavituwa. ", suddenly I felt that this powerful magical item no longer smelled good.
